Pre Loved Sterling JV60 James Valentine-Trans Butter Milk inc Gig Bag

This Sterling JV60 “James Valentine” in Trans Buttermilk is the more affordable sibling of the Ernie Ball Music Man Valentine signature guitar, offering many high‑end specs and is in excellent used condition.

Design & Build

• Body: Slab of Mississippi swamp ash with a sleek, wedge-shaped double‑cutaway – lightweight, ergonomic, and visually appealing under the translucent buttermilk finish 

• Neck & Fretboard: Bolt‑on roasted maple “C” neck with matching roasted maple fretboard, 22 narrow stainless steel frets, 9.5–12" radius; smooth, fast-playing, and resistant to environment 

Pickups & Electronics

• Pickup Configuration: Dual setup – neck humbucker and bridge single-coil (hidden in a humbucker casing), offering everything from warm humbucker tones to crisp, Tele-like snap

• 3-way selector + coil tap (HS/S split via coil-tap on humbucker) gives wide tonal range 

• Push-push 12 dB boost on the volume pot for instant volume/gain lift—great for solos or driving amp tone 

Hardware & Playability

• Bridge: Hardtail with vintage bent saddles and string‑through body for sustain and stability

• Tuners: Locking tuners arranged in a 4+2 headstock for reliable tuning 

• Other: Dual‑action truss rod, bolt‑on neck with 5‑bolt pattern, compensated nut for precise tuning

• Sound palette:

  • Neck humbucker = warm, thick tones;

  • Bridge single‑coil = bright, biting Tele-esque clarity;

  • Both together = fuller, mid‑rich tones.

  • Boost adds bold presence for solos
